Thanks Mike, I did follow as per instructions with 'perl Makefile.PL', 'make', and 'make install'. I just reported here up until my first error as I assumed the next error was related to the first reported. Anyway, I continued on to edit the /opt/rt3/etc/RT_SiteConfig.pm by adding 'Set( @Plugins, qw(RT::Authen::ExternalAuth) );' as per the readme file. After that, if I attempt to restart Apache, the server fails and the error logs report the following: Can't locate Net/LDAP.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/rt3/bin/../local/lib /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib /opt/rt3/bin/../lib /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.8.8 /usr/local/share/perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.8 /usr/share/perl/5.8 /usr/local/lib/site_perl . /etc/apache2) at /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib/RT/Authen/ExternalAuth /LDAP.pm line 2.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib/RT/Authen/ExternalAuth /LDAP.pm line 2.\nCompilation failed in require at /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib/RT/Authen/ExternalAuth .pm line 28.\nBEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/rt3/local/plugins/RT-Authen-ExternalAuth/lib/RT/Authen/ExternalAuth .pm line 28.\nCompilation failed in require at /opt/rt3/bin/../lib/RT.pm line 624.\nCompilation failed in require at (eval 2) line 1.\n

Nothing, you just stopped too early. Once you've done `perl Makefile.PL` you need to do `make` and `make install`. -- Kind Regards, __________________________________________________ Mike Peachey, IT Tel: +44 114 281 2655 Fax: +44 114 281 2951 Jennic Ltd, Furnival Street, Sheffield, S1 4QT, UK Comp Reg No: 3191371 - Registered In England http://www.jennic.com __________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.
